Chapter 2: Mitigation pathways - The 1.5°C Transition: Challenges and Opportunities
1. The 1.5oC Transition:
Challenges and Opportunities
Elmar Kriegler
IPCC SR1.5 Chapter 2 Side Event, COP24, Katowice
12 December 2018
2. Systems transitions in 1.5°C pathways
Limiting warming to 1.5°C would require rapid, far-
reaching changes on an unprecedented scale:
Deep emissions cuts in all sectors and regions
A range of low carbon technologies
Behavioural changes
Investment into system transitions & low carbon options

Sustainable land management
Carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere
with a systems perspective and global coordination.

1.5°C pathways can put different emphasis on
demand- vs. supply-side vs. CO2 removal
Demand-side measures (energy intensity, diets) and early
emissions reduction reduce need for carbon dioxide removal
5. Energy system transitions
Global primary energy
SR1.5 Chap. 2 Fig. 2.15
• Fossil fuel eductions vary with fuel type: coal the most, gas the least
• Limited amount of fossil CCS (predominantly gas)
• Solar, wind, bionenergy with CCS gain the most
6. Electricity system transitions
Full decarbonisation by mid-century
SR1.5 Chap. 2 Fig. 2.16
• Gas supplies 3-11% of electricity (depend. CCS)
• Coal is phased out as source for electricity (0-2%)
• Renewables supply 70-85% of electricity
7. Systems transitions: Energy use
in industry, transport, buildings
CO2 emissions from industry in 2050:
• 75-90% reduced from 2010 levels
Share of low-emission final energy in
transport:
• 35-65% in 2050
Electricity share of final energy in buildings:
• 55-75% in 2050

9. Systems transitions
Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR)
All 1.5°C pathways use CDR in the range of 100-1000 GtCO2
over the 21st century, to
• Compensate residual emissions of CO2
• Achieve net negative CO2 emissions for overshoot
BECCS and AFOLU CDR are predominant options
in 1.5°C pathways
• BECCS: 0-1 GtCO2/yr in 2030, 0-8 GtCO2/yr in 2050
Assessed max. 2050 potential: 5 GtCO2/yr
• AFOLU: 0-5 GtCO2/yr in 2030, 1-11 GtCO2/yr in 2050
Assessed max. 2050 potential: 3.6 GtCO2/yr

10. Range of CDR measures
Portfolio of CDR measures would limit individual deployment and
therefore sustainability issues for each single measure
• Soil carbon enhancement, biochar and land restoration
• Afforestation
• BECCS using energy crops
• BECCS using algae
• Direct Air Capture + Geological storage (DACCS)
• Enhanced Weathering
• Artificial ocean alkalinization
• Carbon capture and usage (e.g. carbon fiber / wood)

(the linkages do not show costs and benefits of mitigation)

14. System transitions - general trends
I. Improve energy efficiency
Limiting final energy demand in 2050
to +20 to -10% rel. to 2010 levels
II. Decarbonize the power sector
(carbon-intensity of electricity about 0 or negative in 2050)
III. Electrify energy end use
(mobility, buildings, industry)
IV. Subs. residual fossil fuels with low-carbon options
(e.g. gas for heating, petrol for driving with bio-based fuels)
• Different roles for different type of fuels
